My one question to Stephan is this: when spelling in a demotiki graffito the better-known four-letter katharevousa form of a famous English verb that means to fecundate (and which begins with a dental labial fricative), is it proper to spell it with only three letters, or must one still use four letters ? I believe I saw it misspelled in a one-word wall poem.
